70-year-old man admits to blackmailing John and Linda de Mol

John de Mol

In October, I wrote an article about media mogul John de Mol and his sister, TV star Linda being victims of blackmail. I showed the link between the De Mol family and the Luv' ladies (see news posted on October 11th, 2014).

On December 3rd, a 70-year-old man from Zeist, NL man was arrested on suspicion of blackmail in connection to an extortion case.

The Dutch police said the unnamed man had admitted to sending letters to the De Mol family, threatening to harm them if he wasn't paid off.

The man confessed after his DNA matched a sample taken from one of the letters.

ALL ABOUT LUV'

This blog is aboutLUV', Holland's greatest girl group of the late 1970s and early 1980s. The original trio consisted of José Hoebee, Marga ScheideandPatty Brard. The three singers scored a string of hits (U.O.Me, You're the Greatest Lover, Trojan Horse, Casanova, Ooh, Yes I Do...) in a large part of Continental Europe, South Africa, Zimbabwe, New Zealand, Australia, Canada and Mexico. In August 1980, RiaThielsch replaced Patty. In March 1981, the group disbanded for the first time. Luv'made several comebacks later and went through line-up changes. The original members reunited several times. In 2016, José, Marga and Ria decided to resurrect Luv'. Currently, Pattyis still busy as a media personality. Several topics are discussed in this blog (including the ones dealing with the group's past and present entourage).
